League of Legends has become one of the biggest games in the world, but it is equally well-known for its vitriolic community. Not everyone that plays League is a jerk, of course, but if you play, chances are you’re going to experience it sooner or later. It’s largely unavoidable. It’s a video game, on the […]
According to the Mayans, the beginning of the end of the world started a couple of days ago… which means you only have a few days left to enjoy video games. I’d recommend checking out Hawken, which just went into open beta. It may prep you on piloting a huge mech, in the event that […]
All signed comic print orders from last week have been packaged up and shipped out. I made another small batch available, planning to ship them out by the end of this week, but this is the last batch for 2012, and the last chance to get a signed print in time for Christmas. The next […]
Why is May 12 soooooo far away??
The term “free to play” has obviously undergone a lot of changes over the past few years. I remember not too long ago when “free to play” was synonymous with “crap”, but that is no longer the case. One of the biggest games in the world, League of Legends, is a free to play title. […]
I played the first Far Cry, and I remember what a big deal everyone made about the graphics. About the foliage, and the draw distance, etc etc. It was neat, but I also recall thinking that once you got past the graphics, it was just a regular ol’ first-person shooter. So I never bothered with […]
I never finished Skyrim, and none of the DLC thus far have made me feel like the repetitiveness that caused my loss of interest has been remedied. I got a great weapon like three hours into the game, and 10+ hours later still hadn’t found anything better. The excitement of finding and exploring new, dark […]
I meant to offer this a couple of weeks ago, but I’ve been caught up with other things. It’s been a few months since I offered signed comic prints, and its long overdue. I want to try and get this batch shipped in time for Christmas. If you order a print by Thursday, it […]
This was also the understanding I had reached with the DMC franchise until very recently. Admittedly, I didn’t have a lot of experience with DMC, so the removal of it from my proverbial gaming “dance card” was not felt too keenly. I had completely missed the first DMC back in 2001, and only briefly played […]
It seems Ubisoft is circulating a survey that seems to suggest they are exploring the idea of co-op in the next Assassin’s Creed game. In the survey, amongst other things, they ask gamers what they think of the “possibility for a friend to join the game in order to help me at any time during […]
First of all, a big thank you to the many, many people that contacted me over this past weekend with their opinions and their support. I enjoyed hearing from all of you, even if I couldn’t respond to everyone personally. After talking with so many people, and doing a lot of thinking, I spent the […]
The following blogposts accompanied last Friday’s comic, and the end of “Ctrl+Alt+Del” v1.0″, but I am reposting it for anyone who hasn’t seen it and may have questions. __________________________________________________________________________________________ So to start off by answering the BIG question hanging in the air… yes, this is really the end. Sort of. To be a little more specific, this is the […]
My wife is a fan of My Little Pony. She and her sister have been collecting ponies since they were kids. These days it has calmed down some, with mostly just the rare ones sought out. But we still have a room in our house that is full of them and more in storage. I’ve […]
I’ve gotten some sleep. Understandably, there are still a lot of questions, and now that I have some of those from you guys, I’d like to try and address them in further detail. “Why end the comic like this? Why this way?” It was tempting when I first made the decision to end the current […]
So to start off by answering the BIG question hanging in the air… yes, this is really the end. Sort of. To be a little more specific, this is the end of Ctrl+Alt+Del in its current incarnation. What’s that mean? It means it’s time for a good ol’ fashioned “Hollywood reboot”. This is a decision […]
Starting tonight at midnight, otherwise known as “Black Friday”, and for the entire weekend, you can get yourself 20% off all Ctrl+Alt+Del merchandise in our store. Books, t-shirts and posters, all of it. And if you’ve had your eyes on anything, now would be a good time to pick it up, as a lot of these […]
